(LAMBERTVILLE, NJ) -- From March 24-March 29, Roxey Ballet invites the community to experience dance with the popular In-The-Studio event series. The lineup includes Beer and Ballet, Tutus and Tiaras, and Brown Bag Ballet.
"Roxey Ballet is all about Building Bridges using dance", says Mark Roxey, director of Roxey Ballet. "This is why community engagement and our In-Studio Series is so vitally important to us. We are always looking for ways to engage our community, and expose them to the beauty that dance performance and human interaction can provide".

Participants will watch professional dancers in a warm-up class and rehearsals while tasting local beer. "Beer and Ballet" offers a behind-the-scenes look at Roxey Ballet's Main Stage performances.
On March 24th, "Beer and Ballet" will allow audiences will get an inside look at the collaboration process as Mark Roxey creates brand new, never-before-seen choreography for "Carmina Burana", a partnership with Princeton Pro Musica and Princeton Girlchoir.
